New York City hits bottom - keeps digging

This is going to get more and more families to move out of the city. From the New York Post:

School diversity panel wants city to scrap gifted programs
A school-diversity panel created by Mayor Bill de Blasio wants to junk the gifted-and-talented programs and other forms of academic screening in city schools.

Arguing that such programs perpetuate racial inequality because they’re comprised mostly of white and Asian students, the School Diversity Advisory Group called on de Blasio and Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza to ditch the current G&T system, according to recommendations released Monday.

The panel also recommended tossing academic admissions screening for middle schools and most high schools.

I wish I was a U Haul representative in New York City - I would be making money hand over fist.
